“…The most exciting purpose of DAG is to minimize the structural confounding bias. For this reason, it has been frequently used to identify suitable sets of covariates in causal effects estimation (Textor et al, 2016;Fang and Zhang, 2022).

Objectives: This present study aimed to infer the association between aspirin exposure prior to ICU admission and the clinical outcomes of patients with Sepsis-associated acute respiratory failure (S-ARF).Methods: We obtained data from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV 2.0. Patients were divided into pre-ICU aspirin exposure group and Non-aspirin exposure group based on whether they took aspirin before ICU admission. The primary outcome is 28-day mortality. Augmented inverse propensity weighted was used to explore the average treatment effect (ATE) of the pre-ICU aspirin exposure. A generalized additive mixed model was used to analyze the longitudinal data of neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), red cell distribution width (RDW), oxygenation index (P/F), dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn), mechanical power (MP), and mechanical power normalized to predicted body weight (WMP) in the two groups. A multiple mediation model was constructed to explore the possible mediators between pre-ICU aspirin exposure and outcomes of patients with S-ARF.Results: A total of 2090 S-ARF patients were included in this study. Pre-ICU aspirin exposure decreased 28-day mortality (ATE, −0.1945, 95% confidence interval [CI], −0.2786 to −0.1103, p < 0.001), 60-day mortality (ATE, −0.1781, 95% Cl, −0.2647 to −0.0915, p < 0.001), and hospital mortality (ATE, −0.1502, 95%CI, −0.2340 to −0.0664, p < 0.001). In subgroup analysis, the ATE for 28-day mortality, 60-day mortality, and hospital mortality were not statistically significant in the coronary care unit group, high-dose group (over 100 mg/d), and no invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV) group. After excluding these non-beneficiaries, Cdyn and P/F ratio of the pre-ICU aspirin exposure group increased by 0.31mL/cmH2O (SE, 0.21, p = 0.016), and 0.43 mmHg (SE, 0.24, p = 0.041) every hour compared to that of non-aspirin exposure group after initialing IMV. The time-weighted average of NLR, Cdyn, WMP played a mediating role of 8.6%, 24.7%, and 13% of the total effects of pre-ICU aspirin exposure and 28-day mortality, respectively.Conclusion: Pre-ICU aspirin exposure was associated with decreased 28-day mortality, 60-day mortality, and hospital mortality in S-ARF patients except those admitted to CCU, and those took a high-dose aspirin or did not receive IMV. The protective effect of aspirin may be mediated by a low dynamic level of NLR and a high dynamic level of Cdyn and WMP. The findings should be interpreted cautiously, given the sample size and potential for residual confounding.

Background Acute respiratory failure (ARF) is a common disease in the intensive care units (ICUs) with high risk of mortality. The red cell distribution width (RDW) is one of baseline ICU indicators which can be easily available, and has been used in the long-term prognostic analyses of diseases. However, no studies have explored the role of baseline RDW and its change during hospitalization in in-hospital mortality in ARF. Herein, this study aims to explore the association between RDW and its changes and the 30-day mortality in ARF patients. Methods Demographic and clinical data of 7,497 patients with ARF were extracted from the Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care IV (MIMIC-IV) database in 2012–2019 in this retrospective cohort study. Univariable and multivariable Cox regression analyses were used to explore the association between RDW and its changes and 30-day mortality with hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Subgroup analyses of different baseline RDW levels were also performed. We then assessed the predictive performance of RDW changes combined with the Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA) score on 30-day mortality using receiver operator characteristic curves (ROCs) with areas under curve (AUCs). Results Totally, 2,254 (30.07%) patients died in 30 days. After adjusting for covariates, we found that high baseline RDW [HR = 1.25, 95%CI: (1.15–1.37)] and RDW changes ≥0.3% [HR = 1.12, 95%CI: (1.01–1.24)] were both related to an increased risk of 30-day mortality. In patients whose baseline RDW level ≥14.9%, RDW changes ≥0.3% was also associated with an increased risk of 30-day mortality [HR = 1.19, 95%CI: (1.05–1.35)]. Moreover, the predictive value of RDW changes combined with SOFA on 30-day mortality was a little better than that of single SOFA score, with AUCs of 0.624 vs. 0.620. Conclusion High baseline RDW level and its changes during hospitalization was relate to the increased risk of 30-day mortality in ARF, and the predictive value of RDW changes for ARF short-term mortality is still needed exploration.

Study Objective To explore the impact of pre‐hospital ACEI and ARB exposure on the prognosis of ARF patients. Design A single‐center retrospective cohort study. Setting Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care‐III (MIMIC‐III) database. Patients The patients meeting ICD‐9 code of acute respiratory failure were enrolled. Intervention The primary exposure was the pre‐hospital exposure of ACEI and ARB. Measurement and main results The primary outcome was in‐hospital mortality. Multiple logistic regression analysis was conducted to determine the independent effect of ACEI/ARB exposure on mortality. Propensity score matching (PSM) method was adopted to reduce bias of the confounders. Subgroup analysis and sensitivity analysis were used to test the stability of the conclusion. 5335 adult ARF patients were enrolled. Mortality was significantly decreased in patients with ACEI/ARB exposure before and after PSM, and the adjusted odds ratio (OR) of ACEI/ARB exposure was 0.56 (95% CI 0.43–0.72). In the subgroup analysis, ACEI/ARB lost its protective effect in young subgroup, but no significant interaction was found between ACEI/ARB exposure and age (p = 0.082). The point estimation and lower 95% limit of E‐value was 2.97 and 2.12. In sensitivity analysis, ACEI/ARB exposure showed similar effect in ARDS cohort, but no significantly difference was found in the MIMIC‐IV database, which may be explained by small sample size of the ACEI/ARB group. Conclusions Among patients with acute respiratory failure, pre‐hospital ACEI/ARB exposure was associated with better outcomes and acted as an independent factor. The relationship between ACEI/ARB and prognosis of ARF is worth investigating further.
